April 2026 will take a slightly different approach to the 30-Day Challenge. Each day of the month, I’ll be participating in the 30-Day Tai Chi Coach4aday Challenge. What will be different this time is that my daily posts won’t be limited to that day’s exercises—I want the freedom to share more spontaneous and wide-ranging thoughts along the way.
I will still include the focus of each day’s Tai Chi routine, but much of what I write may explore topics far removed from exercise. Just as Tai Chi is designed to improve flexibility, I hope my writing reflects that same sense of openness and adaptability each day. For Day 22 my thoughts are on ANOMOLIES.

Searching online for a 30-Day program brought me face to face with lots of options but I have chosen a plan led by Dr Alan Potts PT. You can download the schedule I am utilizing at this link.
It looks like this.

April 22nd-Anomalies
In today’s society it is very easy for social media to shape the various paradigms we may have about other people or cultures. When we encounter facts that contradict that point of view one of two events is likely to take place. That occurrence is defined as an anomaly.
How we react to anomalies takes place in two forms. First, we may shift our thinking or second is just dismiss the event because of strong confirmation bias. The latter is far more common.
Last weekend I had an opportunity to spend 20 minutes with someone who could be labeled as Generation Z. That label usually means not very focused and attached to their phone. This individual was engaged in conversation, fantastic listener, and focused on the task at hand. That event shifted my paradigm.
